I've been given the volume of a right cylinder: 245pi cm cubed, and I'm trying to find the length of the cylinder. The radius is 5cm.

campbell_st · Answer

well this is what you need to know   for volume of a right prism or cylinder. 


Volume = Base Area x Height

so you need to divide the volume by the area of the circle, radius 5 cm to find the height, or length of the cylinder
